chronic rhinitis

My name is Priangkah, and I am a 32-year-old female who has been struggling with chronic rhinitis for the past 10 years. Despite trying various medications and treatment options, I have found little to no long-term relief. My symptoms continue to significantly affect my quality of life. I have also been diagnosed with an allergy to NSAIDs, which has further limited my treatment options. Given the persistent nature of my condition and the ineffectiveness of current medications, I am now exploring the possibility of Allergen Immunotherapy (AIT) as a long-term treatment solution. I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to consult with you regarding my condition, explore suitable allergy testing, and determine if AIT is an appropriate course of action for me.
